TAITUHA 1 - New Testament with modified orthography(MRNT)

He Mihi

1Nā Paora, he pono­nga nā te Atua, he āpō­toro nā Īhu Karaiti.

I runga i te whaka­pono o te hunga whiri­whiri a te Atua, i te mātau­ranga hoki ki tā te pono e rite ai te kara­kia;

2i runga anō i te tū­mana­ko atu ki te ora tonu, i whaka­aria mai nei i mua atu o te ao e te Atua e kore nei e teka;

3nāna nei i whaka­kite mai tāna kupu i ōna wā, rā te kupu i tukua mai ki ahau, he mea whaka­rite mai nā te Atua, nā tō tātou Kai­whaka­ora.

4Ki a Taituha, ki tāku tama­iti pono i runga i tō tātou whaka­pono tahi:

Kia tau te aroha noa me te rangi­mārie, he mea nā te Atua Matua, nā Karaiti Īhu, nā tō tātou Kai­whaka­ora.

Te Mahi a Taituha i Kariti

5Ko te mea tēnei i waiho atu ai koe e ahau ki Kariti, kia whaka­tikaia ai e koe ngā mea i mahue, kia whaka­ritea ai anō hoki he kaumātua ki ia pā, ki ia pā, kia pērā ai me tāku i whaka­takoto atu ai ki a koe.

6Ki te mea he tangata kāhore e eke­ngia e te kupu, he tahu nō te wahine kotahi, he tama­riki whaka­pono ana, kāhore e kōrero­tia tō rātou tō­rere­tanga ki te kino, kāhore e tutū.

7Ko te tikanga hoki mō te pīhopa, kia kaua e eke­ngia e te kupu, kia rite ki tā te Atua tuari; ehara i te mea tohe ki tāna ake, kāhore ōna ārita­rita kāhore āna kakai wāina kāhore āna papatu, kāhore e whai i te taonga hē;

8engari e ata­whai ana i te manu­hiri, e aroha ana ki te pai, e whai whaka­aro ana, e tika ana, e tapu ana, e pēhi ana i ōna hia­hia.

9E ū ana te pupuri i te kupu pono i whaka­akona atu nā, kia taea ai e ia, i te mea ka tika nei tāna whaka­ako, te whaka­hau­hau, te turaki anō i tā te hunga e totohe mai ana.

10He toko­maha hoki te hunga tutū, kōrero teka noa, tini­hanga; nui atu ia o te hunga o te kotinga,

11me kuku ō rātou waha; riro pū hoki ētahi whare te whaka­puta kē e rātou, e whaka­ako ana i ngā mea e kore e tika, he whaka­aro hoki ki te taonga hē.

12I mea tētahi o rātou, he poro­piti nō rātou ake, “He teka tonu tā ngā Kariti, he kararehe kino, he puku­kai, he māngere.”

13Ka pono tēnei kōrero. Nā reira, kia koi tāu kupu riri ki a rātou; kia ora ai tō rātou whaka­pono;

14kei tahuri hoki rātou ki ngā kupu tito a ngā Hūrai, ki ngā ture a ngā tāngata e whaka­puta kē ana i te pono.

15He mā ngā mea katoa ki te hunga mā. Tēnā, ki te hunga poke, kāhore nei ō rātou whaka­pono, kāhore he mea mā. Heoi, he mea poke ō rātou whaka­aro, ō rātou hine­ngaro.

16Ki tā rātou kī, kua mātau rātou ki te Atua; heoi, ko ā rātou mahi hei whaka­kāhore ki a ia, he hunga whaka­riha­riha rātou, he hunga tutū, e kore anō e tikanga­tia mō tētahi mahi pai.
